That looks very sweet indeed. And from a Trebuchet fan to another (the  
font is M$ Trebuchet, isn't it?), you might want to check out how it is  
rendered when FreeType uses the patented bytecode interpreter. I think  
the fonts from the "corefonts" package look so much better with the  
patented bytecode interpreter.
